Mastering jq
This is the first part of an ongoing series on mastering jq. jq is a valuable tool that every fast coder has in their tool chest. It contains depths of immense power. In part 1, we'll start off with the basics.

I asked an LLM to write a
jqscriptlet for me today. It wasn't even complicated, it just beat working it out/trying to craft the write string to search Stackoverflow for.I tried and failed to get an LLM to write jq code to do a regex based matcher for finding if one json object was a subset of another.
Gave up and learned it enough to get it going. jq is nutso powerful.
I don't understand how regex comes into it? Sounds tricky though!
Basically "does this JSON object contain at least these two properties, and is the value of one particular properties a string of digits followed by the letter 'Z'", for example.
